Imperial City Investigative Department

Chapter 440 Tiangang is coming (first update)
"It's not open, but you can see it. Isn't this incredible? At that moment, we could all see the outside, knowing that we were suspended in mid-air, and Tiangang could reach out and touch it. It scared me at the time. Seeing Yue Yue and the others being torn apart... Later, I could only see the blue flames and nothing else. Day after day, year after year, I lived as if I were dead. How could I want another person? It's so satisfying, just like the leader Yue made a fuss, but no one is willing to pay attention to it. Fortunately, you are here, but..."

"I will find a way to put out the flames, but first I have to survive. Do you know where I can get out?"

"I didn't mean to hide it from you. Where did I know where to go? I was here when I woke up. The only time I saw someone outside was to kill people."

"So you want us to open the coffin. Do you think that after the fire is extinguished, you can leave and reincarnate?"

"Yes, I heard everything you said outside before, but I shouted for a long time and you didn't get any response..."

"You mean you called me before?"

"Of course! I thought it was because we were hanging in the air and you couldn't hear us, so I didn't shout anymore."

"You guys also usually... chat?"

"Why don't we chat? For so many days, I have basically told you what I know several times."

"Have you also talked with Li Shen?"

"He can't do it. He's very sick and can't speak a whole sentence. In order to die early, he tried to speak a few more words. Hey, do you know what disease he has? It's Hualiu disease! The dignified Prince Xingguo went out on errands at night I stayed with my young lady at night, and fell ill when I returned to Kyoto. I said there must be bad people around him. He is still a prince at a young age, how can he be so unwilling to restrain himself? And can this matter be hidden? In fact, it is not necessarily the case. It cannot be cured, but it cannot be cured by law. If this spreads..."

"So Li Shen didn't die of illness."

"Of course not! He was beaten to death by officials! Fortunately, he took some medicine in advance..."

"Zhao Fu, shut up!" Li Shen yelled with all his strength.

"Oh, why are you in such a hurry? They can't get out. Soon Tiangang will come out to deliver food, and they will be torn into pieces. Let me have some fun first."

Wu Chen moved to Li Shen's coffin and asked, "What medicine did you take before? Who gave it to you?"

Li Shen remained silent.

"If I tell you, you were just plotted. What you have is not Hualiu Disease at all. It's the people from Shuangxi Village who want you to come here voluntarily..."

"Do you think I'm stupid? At the beginning, maybe I didn't know it, but I'm lying here... How can I not know it?"

"What is Tiangang?"

"I don't know. He is extremely tall and powerful. You have to be careful."

Wu Chen raised his head and recalled the position where the coffin was hung. The approximate height of Tiangang flashed in his mind, and then he took a breath of air and choked at the smell.

He took two steps back and coughed a few times. He was thinking in his mind that the people in Shuangxi Village had found so many people with status. Naturally, they wanted to find who they could recognize after finding the ink wash. What next?This person's soul will be collected...

Wu Chen was lost in thought when several loud noises came from the cave.

Zhao Fu shouted excitedly: "It's coming, it's coming, Tiangang is coming!" "What are you so beautiful about? If we die, who will help you figure out how to put out the fire?" Xing Yun asked angrily.

"That's right!" Zhao Fu immediately said: "Don't think that he can't see you. He can trample you to death if he raises his foot. You quickly find a place to hide. He will deliver water and leave after delivering it." .”

"You are the only one who still wants to restore the state? You have all fallen to the ground and the coffin lid has been lifted. Is it useful for us to hide?" Xing Yun asked anxiously.

"That's not right," Wu Chen frowned: "If Tiangang was so powerful, the mummies on the ground would turn into powder when he lifted his feet. But when we came, there were mummies everywhere."

Xing Yun and others gathered around Wu Chen at this time. Xing Yun asked: "So many mummies couldn't have been dried quickly between two meals, right?"

Wu Chen didn't have time to think too much at this time. He had already seen the guy named Tiangang walking out of the gap in the middle of the mountain.

But the rest of the cave was very dark. Xing Yun and the others only saw Wu Chen raising his head and staring into the darkness in a daze. Xing Yun asked anxiously: "What did you see? Is it scary? Can't we see it?" ? It’s not a ghost again, is it? It’s really hard for you.”

"It's not difficult for me this time. You can all see it and fight with me. Do you still remember the four giants in the Longgu Mountain Villa?" Wu Chen asked.

"They're not dead? Are they here?" Xing Yun asked in surprise.

"Don't just look below, look up. It looks like it's wearing a black armor. You can't see it in the darkness. Look up at its face. It's bronze. This difference should be..."

"What the hell! I only saw a big head floating in the air!" Xing Yun jumped a little and said anxiously.

"Are you deaf? Can't you hear the movements it makes step by step?" Gu You nervously pulled out his sword, stood in front of Wu Chen, raised his head and looked not far ahead, and asked with a trembling voice : "How to fight this?"

Wu Chen looked at the mummies on the ground. Those that had been broken into pieces were still there, but none of the intact ones could be found!

Wu Chen frowned, thinking about the loud noises he heard just now, and the cave did tremble...

Tian Gang walked to the position where the coffin fell and stopped moving.

Wu Chen took the opportunity to quickly dodge to the crack in the mountain when Tiangang came out. He knew it was a trap and would only open it when Tiangang came out. Since Tiangang could come out, there might be an exit to the outside world.

But when Wu Chen looked inside, he was shocked. This was not another cave, it was clearly hell!
I saw dozens of stone beds like altars in the cave, hanging two stories high, and people could be vaguely seen lying on them!There is something like a bamboo tube under the stone bed that is connected to the stone pool on the ground. The pool is dark and boiling with heat...

The strong smell of blood and herbs made Wu Chen retching. He could no longer look inside, so he had to step back and shout: "What Tiangang is holding is not water, it is blood! Blood with medicine added to it." , you should be careful and try not to get it."

"Where have you gone? It's dark. We want to pay attention, but we have to see clearly!"

Perhaps because Wu Chen shouted something loudly, the crack suddenly made a "clang" sound, and then slowly closed.

Tian Gang obviously didn't expect that the way home was closed. He turned around awkwardly and looked down at Wu Chen.

Only then did Wu Chen see Tiangang's eyes clearly. This thing should have no eyelids, huge eyes hanging outside the eye sockets, huge nostrils, but no mouth.
